49ers report card: Best scoring output secures win over lousy Giants
"PASS OFFENSE: A- Mac Jones' sensational first half saw him complete all 14 of his passes, including touchdown strikes to Christian McCaffrey and Jauan Jennings on the first two drives to take a lead the 49ers would not relinquish. Jones finished 19-of-24 for 235 yards and posted a 135.2 passer rating that was his best in seven starts with the 49ers and second-best of his five-year career."
"RUN OFFENSE: A- McCaffrey not only led the 49ers in receiving (five catches, 67 yards, touchdown) but also rushing with his second 100-yard game this season (106 yards, 28 carries, touchdown). More eye-opening was Brian Robinson's season-best 53 yards on five carries, highlighted by his fourth-quarter touchdown run. Spencer Burford made his first career start at left guard and relished playing next to Trent Williams in the 39-carry, 159-yard rushing attack."
San Francisco beat New York 34-24 in East Rutherford. Mac Jones completed 19-of-24 passes for 235 yards and a 135.2 passer rating after a perfect 14-of-14 first half. Christian McCaffrey rushed 28 times for 106 yards and a touchdown and caught five passes for 67 yards and a score. Brian Robinson added a season-best 53 yards and a fourth-quarter rushing touchdown. Spencer Burford made his first career start at left guard in a 159-yard team rushing attack. Mykel Williams suffered a potential ACL tear late, weakening the pass rush. Clelin Ferrell and Sam Okuyainonu each recorded sacks. Tatum Bethune led the defense with 16 tackles and Upton Stout delivered key hits as the Giants rallied in the fourth behind rookie Jaxson Dart.
